8.63. MACROQ -- Execute Macro Quietly
This command executes the macro corresponding to the specified number. The macro must have 
been previously defined and stored in non-volatile memory via the 
MACROS, MACROA, and MACROW 
commands. If the specified macro is empty, then an error condition of ERROR#070 will be generated. 
When the MACROQ command executes, status messages for all of the commands in the macro will not 
be generated. The MACROQ is provided so that a control system can execute a macro and not 
generate heavy data traffic from the resulting status messages. Of course, this assumes that the 
control system is not interested in any of the acknowledgements. The 
MACROX command can be used 
to execute the macro without suppressing status messages. 
Example Description Status Message
Q01MACROQ125
Execute macro number 125 without generating any status 
messages.

8.64. MACROS -- Start a New Macro
This command is used to start writing a new macro with a specified macro number. This command is 
used in conjunction with the 
MACROA and MACROW commands to create a new macro. If this 
command is sent while another macro is in the process of being written (before the 
MACROW 
command is sent), then the macro in progress will be deleted and the new one will be started. 
See the description of the 
MACROA command for detailed information on creating macros. 
8.65. MACROW -- Write Macro to Non-Volatile Memory
This command writes the macro that is currently being defined to non-volatile memory. This 
command is used in conjunction with 
MACROA and MACROS to create a new macro. If this command 
is sent when no macro is in progress (i.e., if a 
MACROS command has not been sent) or if the macro 
number sent with this command does not match the number of the macro in progress, then an error 
will be returned. 
See the description of the 
MACROA command for detailed information on creating macros. 
This command is saved to global non-volatile memory and is not part of a preset. Its value is saved 
each time it is changed. It will retain its value after power-down. Since this command writes to non-
volatile memory, there will be a delay before an acknowledgment is returned.
